In the years to come, demand for power battery packs with even higher capacity will grow robustly, compelling power bank manufacturers to extend their product portfolio for 7500-10000 mAh and above 10000 mAh capacity power banks. By the end of 2024, power banks with more than 10000 mAh capacity are likely to get sold at the fastest rate across the globe.

Similar to their prevalence today, Lithium-ion (Li-ion) power banks will remain to be the dominant type of power battery packs being preferred by consumers. Efficiency of Li-ion batteries in charging and transmitting power will keep factoring the growth in global demand for Li-ion power battery packs.
